Arsenal must pay £93m to sign Benjamin Sesko

Arsenal must pay £93 million to purchase RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko this summer, according to The Telegraph.

The Gunners are expected to land a marquee striker in the next transfer window and they are looking at different options.

Sesko is one of the top names on their radar, but they have now received a setback with Leipzig's significant price tag.

The Telegraph claim that Leipzig have set a huge £93m asking price for the marksman and have no plans to negotiate.

The Bundesliga outfit won't be playing in Europe next season, but they are still expected to hold on to their demands.

Sesko netted 21 goals in the recent campaign. He is far from the finished article but he has immense potential in him.

Hence, we are not surprised that Arsenal are planning to return for the striker after their failure to sign him last summer.

If Leipzig don't change their stance on the price, Arsenal could be forced to look at alternative options in the coming weeks.
